The Burning God
by R.F. Kuang
The Burning God is the third installment in a Chinese-history inspired epic fantasy trilogy about empire, warfare, shamanism, and opium.
Kuang’s Poppy War series, the saga of a young shaman fighting to bring the old gods back to her homeland, comes to a striking close in this gritty finale (after The Dragon Republic)… Kuang pointedly underlines the ambiguous moral choices and personal costs of the path toward victory and lasting peace, sparing neither characters nor readers from the horrors and consequences of war. The result is a satisfying if not happy end to the series.
